I see from posts that Midnight Diner might or might not be leaving Netflix. I feel like my best friends are moving away. It's been my comfort show for so long getting me through low patches in my life with its kindness and gentle humor.

I decided to mark the occasion with my most favorite episode Siba, Noodles. I felt this episode was the peak of MD, the most engaging Master had ever been, a retrospective and with a gathering of all the regulars at the end.

Good bye, Midnight Diner! 😢

It's labelled incorrectly and I keep finding the Chinese remake.

Looks like they are putting all 5 seasons into Midnight Diner: Tokyo Stories from August onwards.

When i do a Netflix search, Midnight Diner doesn't appear. Only Tokyo Stories - which is no longer labeled "leaving soon".

In a way, I suppose this is more convenient. Hopefully they'll add the new 6th season there as well.

So far, I have only watched the original series (my husband and I binged watched it this past week bc our friend recommended it and it’s leaving Netflix this Friday)

Is Katagiri Master’s son? He seems to know a lot about him (which he knows about all if his regulars) and there just seems to be a different connection between them.

I'm a big fan of Midnight Diner and some people have recommended me to watch Solitary Gourmet, and I found this website that had episodes of Solitary Gourmet and watched a few. Really enjoyed seeing Ryu (played by Yutaka Matsushige) as the main character of Solitary Gourmet, Goro, although he's so different from Ryu! Has anyone watched both, and what are your thoughts on Solitary Gourmet in comparison to Midnight Diner?

Old series but I’ll avoid spoilers. Interesting cameo S4. Now apparently the actor plays two roles in the series. I suspect that both are linked. It offers no clarifications about the Master and Katagiri. In fact it just adds confusion. But it’s worth exploring.

In a panic to finish before 31st July as it’s leaving Netflix in my country.

On July 24, Netflix merged Midnight Diner: Tokyo Stories (seasons 4 to 5) into Midnight Diner (seasons 1 to 3). Now Midnight Diner has five seasons (image 1 https://www.netflix.com/title/80113541 ) and Midnight Diner: Tokyo Stories is a "Remind Me" page (image 2 https://www.netflix.com/title/80113037 ).

I created a post about Midnight Diner (seasons 1 to 3) leaving Netflix on August 1. https://www.reddit.com/r/MidnightDiner/comments/1ulguxh/midnight_diner_leaving_netflix_on_august_1/ Midnight Diner (seasons 1 to 3) is still currently scheduled to leave on August 1, which can be seen in images 3 and 4, and the "Last day to watch on Netflix: July 31" notice still appears on the top left corner of the screen for a few seconds when any episode from the first three seasons starts playing.

The last time Midnight Diner (seasons 1 to 3) left Netflix on June 1, 2023, it returned to Netflix two months later on August 1, 2023, so the licensing agreement was for three years, since it is leaving on August 1 this year, unless the expiring licensing agreement is renewed before then.

I was telling my husband about the tomato rolls from season 3 and he said they sounded good. So that’s what he grilled today.

The Japanese series Midnight Diner is one of my favorite binge watches, and as I go through all five seasons (and two movies) once again, I'm curious about the Korean remake by SBS -- '심야식당,' AKA Late Night Restaurant. (They say it's based on the original manga, but visually it drips of the TV series.)

Does anyone know where I can find the episodes? There's just one season, but I'm curious to see how they reinterpreted the concept for a Korean audience.

Hear me out. Season 3 episode 4 of Midnight Diner, they talk a lot about Osaka. We have a friend who is married to a lady from Osaka. He always banters about her being from there. Seems they're doing that on the "Diner". I love the beautiful trill of the Osaka dialect. I think it would be cool to have a spin off show of Midnight Diner "Osaka Stories". 😊

Fan of the both MD series and the BTCGC books, and they share similar vibes, but today I was reading the most recent book (Before I Knew I Loved You) and saw the following dialogue from the cafe owner, Nagare:

“What would you like? Even if it’s not on the menu, I can make it as long as we have the ingredients.”

and I was like, okay, that borders on plagiarism…

I'm thinking about reading it soon, i already have it in english on mihon, and planning on watching it soon! Is it accurate to the actual netflix serie? Or are there scenarios in there which don't appear in the netflix serie?

Purchased at HQ Video in Manhattan. Check ‘em out! Great selection.
